More Information about ProctorU

ProctorU is a live remote proctoring service that allows students to take their exams from anywhere using a webcam and a reliable internet connection. Here at Tri-C ProctorU can be used for online courses and is available to fully online students for a maximum of two tests, per semester, per class. These tests can be in the form of two 31-60 minute exams OR one 61-120 minute exam free of charge. Any additional exams taken with ProctorU must be paid for by the student. The cost will be $15 for a 31-60 minute exam or $25 for a 61-120 minute exam. Students who are not fully online will be asked to pay for this service or take the test in one of the testing centers at any Tri-C campus.

Should you as a faculty member have any difficulty while using the service, call the Proctor U support desk at 855-772-8678 and select option #2 from your touch tone phone. You may also contact Proctor U directly through Email at: facultyhelp@proctoru.com

The tests can be two 31-60 minute exams OR one 61-120 minute exam free of charge. Any additional exams taken with ProctorU must be paid for by the student.
